Hello,Am considering a Grand Design 2670KM (approx 32ft) for Boondocking. Has good size tanks so thats a positive.Haven't been able to find much from people who own a Grand Design and use it for boondocking. Would be interested in their observations and comments on how suitable the Grand Design is.Thank youRgdsnonrev

One reason we bought the GD was because of its larger tanks.Does the 2670 have a gravity fill port on the fresh water tank? Our 2650 does but the earlier models didn't.I believe the 2670 has the fridge vent on the roof and no fans, a plus over our 2650.The Furrion solar port is a useless feature IMHO. I'm planning on adding solar but will tie the charge controller right to the batteries.And you need to add the usual upgrades - dual batteries, and an upgraded converter for charging off a generator. My IOTA converter is in the pass-through next to the hookup center.

How long a period of time do you plan to stay out ? Off grid .Are all your ducks in a row regarding freshwater, dumping and recharging ?

You will really like solar, gbopp. Do it!

I took a hard look at the Grand Design trailers, but the Lippert frame killed the deal. I was already trading in my Keystone trailer because the frame could not take the long dirt roads I drive to get to camping spots. I wan't going to buy another nice looking trailer with a wimpy frame.I ended up buying a Nash 22h -- Part of the Northwood RV line. Outdoors RV is equally sturdy. My trailer is heavy - it's pushing my F150's capabilities. But it came with the big tanks, solar capability, and sturdy trailer I needed. Also, think about length. I know I cannot get a trailer longer than 25' into some of the camp sites I really like. Your scenario may be different.

If you have Facebook there is a Grand Design Owners page. It might help
